The Separated


... and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
-Revelation 5:9.

God has called every believer to Himself and separated from the world. We are separated from family's, traditions, nativity, state and even nation. We are now heavenly citizens as ambassadors on the earth.
Remember, when Jesus was speaking to his disciples and the mother came desiring to speak to him?
Matt.12:46-49 "While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him. Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!"  Also in Mark 3:31-35.
Another clear example is Abraham. Gen.12:1 "Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:" but Gen.12:4 said lot went with him. We all saw that Abraham life never saw the promised breakthrough until Lot departed or separated from Abraham, it was then that God ask Abraham to lift up his eyes.
Gen. 13:14-15. "And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever." Thereafter blessings, blessings and more blessings.

We must understand that we have obligation to relations i.e sibling, parents etc. But we must be more conscious of our spiritual stand and obligation. For example Jesus didn't separate himself totally from his siblings. James and John worked with him throughout, but not just as sibling.
We must be able to separate the two. If, we must live a triumphant life here and now. More grace!

Press In

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.... – Colossians 3:16 Things in this old world aren't getting any better, and in recent times, the Holy Spirit has been speaking an urgent message to my heart. He's been saying, Press in. Draw in to a more intimate relationship with your heavenly Father. If you don't, you won't make it. If you do, you will see more glorious outpourings of God than you can imagine. That message isn't just for me. It's also for you—and for every other believer on the earth today. We are in the last of the last days of this age. Jesus is coming soon. It's an exciting time, but it's also a dangerous time. Those who don't do what the Spirit says, who don't press in to the Lord, are going to go from disaster to disaster. But those who do will defeat the disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus' Name! Your first step in drawing closer to God is to realize that you know God first in His Word. Time spent meditating i...

Money truce.

People make reference that "The Bible says money is the root of all  evil...." The Bible didn't say that at all. The Bible says, "For the LOVE of MONEY is the root of all evil" (1Tim.6:10). You could be guilty of that sin and not have a dime. It's not wrong to have money; it's wrong for money to have you. #prosperityreality

Extremely Blessed!

A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth. – Proverbs 17:8 If I could give you a gift this Christmas, the Word is what I'd give you. I'd rather give it to you than a check for a million dollars. Because you can run through a million dollars real quick, but the truth of God's Word never quits—and it will get you out of situations a million dollars can't get you out of. Ken and I are just ordinary people. But when we latched on to God's Word, we latched on to something out of the ordinary, something that changed our lives. Every area of our lives. Nothing that's happened to us has happened because of us. It's happened because of God's Word. In fact, I don't even have to know you to promise you this: If you'll give God's Word your full attention—and not be afraid of His will for your life—you're going to be happier and more prosperous than anything you could ever dream up. O...
